Read with a specific decision in mind.
Bring a source and a problem you are trying to solve. The strategic-reading skill helps your assistant connect relevant passages to that situation and save an applied analysis in your memory.
Illustrative request
Read this case study through the lens of our onboarding problem. Which lessons are relevant this month?
The assistant identifies relevant sections and drafts source-backed recommendations. The analogy is an interpretation to assess, not evidence that the same approach will produce the same outcome.
Illustrative scenario, not a live product result.Give the reading a clear purpose
A general summary and an applied analysis answer different questions. This workflow needs a specific situation as well as the source text. The assistant triages sections by relevance before examining the passages that bear most directly on your problem.
Keep recommendations attached to evidence
The output connects the source's examples, successes and failures to practical choices. Recommendations are organized into near-term, medium-term and longer-term actions, with source references so you can inspect the reasoning and decide where the analogy stops being useful.
- Relevant passages and their context
- Actions to consider and warning signs to watch
- Links to the project or concepts already in memory
Use an agent with access to the source
The skill runs in your assistant, which must be able to read or extract the supplied material. Article fetching and document extraction depend on that agent's tools. Saving the resulting project or concept page also requires authorized Memrain write access; the website does not process uploads.
